Sheriff, give me a smile~

When Li Bai woke up, it was high in the sun, Di Renjie was not by his side, and there was no warmth left in the empty bed.

He got up and walked around the room, but didn't find anything left by Di Renjie, not even a word.

Li Bai sighed.

I have to wait for another year, and I seem to be always waiting for him, and I don't know... how long I will wait.

Pushing open the door and looking at the lonely courtyard, Li Bai calmed down: I have been away from Qingqiu for so many days, and I don't know what kind of mess Qingqiu is now, it's time to go back.

While rushing back to Qingqiu, Li Bai was thinking about how to explain the ten-day itinerary to Qingqiu's subjects.

For some reason, Li Bai always felt restless along the way, and the closer he was to Qingqiu, the stronger this feeling became.

Illusion, I just walked for ten days, what could happen?

Li Bai shook his head to drive out the strange thoughts in his head.

The moment he stepped into Qingqiu, Li Bai smelled an unusual smell.

It's... the smell of blood.

Li Bai's heart sank suddenly, and he quickened his pace.

The further they walked, the heavier the smell of blood, mixed with the smell of burning things.

Li Bai stopped suddenly and bowed his head.

The soles of the feet were bloodstained, mixed with fine fluff.

Li Bai squatted down, dipped a little of the almost dried blood with his hand, put it to his nose and smelled it.

The blood of the Qingqiu Fox Clan.

Li Bai's heart was slightly disturbed, and his breathing was a little short.

He continued to walk forward.

Blood, more blood, fallen trees, scorched mountains, broken weapons, destroyed houses and caves, and... corpses everywhere.

They were all the corpses of their Qingqiu people.

It was as if the bottom of his heart had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. Li Bai felt dizzy and almost couldn't stand upright.

Can't believe this is true.

He knelt down and touched those people with trembling hands.

Not breathing, lifeless, cold, dead.

One like this, two like this, three like this... Li Bai walked past countless corpses, all like this.

Ten days, just ten days... How could this happen, how could this happen!

There was blood all over the place, and the eyes and ears were in disarray. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like a fierce battle.

"King, Your Majesty..."

A faint voice sounded from one side.

Li Bai hurried away looking for the sound.

Are there any survivors?

The old Qingqiu Fox stretched out his hand tremblingly to Li Bai. Li Bai quickly squatted down in front of him, grabbed his hand, and spoke tremblingly: "The old man..."

The old fox was covered in wounds, and was about to die. With his last breath, he said to Li Bai: "The Dragon Clan...Kanzong..."

Li Bai had a bad premonition.

"what"

"Dragon Clan, Kan Zong teamed up... Ten days ago...cough cough cough...attacked Qingqiu..."

With a sound of "Boom," something exploded in Li Bai's mind.

"Kanzong..." His voice was trembling, "It's Kanzong"

"Qingqiu's funeral...the fortification is very shallow...not to mention that the power is...not as good as before...the Yuanhun Orb is not here..." The old fox continued with difficulty, pinching Li Bai's hand tightly, his eyes were ferocious and sad : "Your Majesty is not here... I can't wait... I have been waiting for you for nine days...but..."

But I didn't come back.

Thousands of arrows pierced the heart, Li Bai closed his eyes.

what am i doing

I left when Qingqiu needed it most.

I left when the nation needed it most.

I let my powerful opponent slaughter Qingqiu and kill my people.

I let them wait in vain, let their hope fade away a little bit, let them die in despair.

Maybe there is a child crying in fear before death, maybe there is a woman trembling helplessly, maybe there is an old man sighing and expecting over and over again, maybe there is a man who wants to protect his family because of red eyes , and their king... what is he doing?

The ten days of wind, flowers, snow and moon are extremely absurd.

Kanzong, Dragon Clan, very good, really good!

He thought of every word and every movement of the Onmyoji during those ten days.

He drinks with you, he blushes because of you, he holds your hand, he hugs your body, he says that he wants to protect Chang'an in the next life, but there is no sorrow in his poems just for you.

A joke, like a joke.

Di Huaiying, is this what you do for me? !

Is that how you think of me without sorrow? !

Li Bai was furious, and opened his eyes, the red eyes filled with tears.

"The death of a fox...will...shouqiu..."

After the old fox said the last sentence, he swallowed his breath.

Another pain in my heart.

I never knew that people could be sad like this, and their hearts could be hurt like this.

He obviously wanted to protect them with his life, he obviously didn't want them to suffer a little harm, he obviously did so many things that he didn't like for so many years... it was all for them...

But why, I... still couldn't hold on...

Ah Yin will be very disappointed, father will be very sad, mother...you will want to cry.

Li Bai took out the original soul bead that he carried with him, and the bead was dim.

Here is the blood of countless Qingqiu ancestors. They lay the foundation for themselves with their lives, hoping that they can protect Qingqiu well, but in the end... there are only bones left, blood dripping, the pain of the people, and the hatred of the new king.

Li Bai's tears fell and hit the Yuanhun bead, and the bead gave off a faint purple light.

Suddenly all the bones and blood on the ground disappeared, and countless sparkling stars appeared in the sky.

There are more and more star points, converging into a small river, flowing into the soul orb.Yuanhunzhu seems to be angry, and its brilliance is even brighter and more attractive.

Li Bai watched the bead shining beautifully, tears fell down again.

Didn't I want you just to protect Qingqiu? Now that Qingqiu is gone, no matter how beautiful you are, what's the use?

He took back the soul orb and stood up slowly.

No matter how weak Qingqiu was, how could it be captured in just ten days? Di Huaiying, have you been planning for a long time?

I thought that because of me, Kanzong would not do anything to Qingqiu;

I thought, I like you so much, you won't want to hurt me;

I thought that I would come up with a perfect plan to keep the demons and Taoists in balance;

I thought you had the same heart as me.

Di Huaiying, during those ten days, you sent me away on purpose, right?

You know how my Qingqiu is being brutally killed, right?

You know it all, but you still pretend to be ignorant!

Then you let me come back and see this miserable scene.

Di Huaiying, do you really love me?

Li Bai suddenly laughed, laughing loudly.

He drew his sword and waved it, the light of the sword shook, and the ground trembled in a radius of ten li.

Li Bai's eyes turned red, and he walked towards Kanzong step by step.

He let himself show his original form, with purple hair and fox ears, with a fierce aura, and only murderous aura in his evil eyes.

Today, I'm going to slaughter you and kill your entire family.
